On the Bowen thing, it looks like WHU have been using a back three all summer, with Bowen playing up top in a two. Expect he'll pop up all over, but I wouldn't think he'll be pinned to the right flank. Dunno what that means for our defensive options though
It means we need to be flexible as I believe we can be.
We now have a very experienced left back, who’s happy in a 3, 4 or 5 with Le Fée, Diarra and Xhaka backing him up wherever is needed …
… Bowen will have some tough tackling defenders to cope with, he's not going to relax for a second.
Whoever’s tracking back needs to be there for the full back.
Im at 10pm last night and still 9 pages to go...
People need to man up and stop trying to share their anxieties. Not sure what they gain other than spoil it for others.
Aye you're right, no chance at all and we are signing kazaiah sterling.
Yeah generally would say hes left footed right winger but also scores basically the same amount with his right and scores a lot of headers. Natural cover for LW, RW and ST really.
Yeah totally mate, thats why it'll happen! (no idea if we even want him).
we can afford that and think we’ll spend similar anyway
He did the back end of last year actually. He’s rapid Bowen. Isn’t always consistentOn the Bowen thing, it looks like WHU have been using a back three all summer, with Bowen playing up top in a two.

I understand the underlying logic but I can't help feel that if we were willing and able to spend €40m on a centre back, we'd have one by now.
I am reasonably relaxed about CB, always have been. I understand the want for game 1. It seems to me the club are fishing in the big fish pond at the moment. Maybe we are unsuccessful and have to drop down a pond. There are so many very good CBs kicking about that I don't mind the notion of coming down a level personally. We will pick a couple up who fit the squad, and they don't need to cost £30m by any means.
Or it could be that no centre back worth €40m wants to live in Sunderland …
… if I had that kind of money I don’t think I would either tbh.
People are expressing opinion on a message board. If you interpret it as anxiety that's spoiling your enjoyment, that's on you.
I'd say the people who find a bit of nervousness as spoiling it for them are the ones that need to "man up".
Is still obviously happened because we’ve just done it with Jobe but it feels like the days of finding bargain footballers aren’t going to be here for much longer. Feels like anyone coming to the PL is €20m minimum, foreign clubs must see English clubs coming a mile off.
It’s getting spoiled for people because someone else is worried 
There are any amount of reasons why a deal doesn't happen other than the cost.
Bombshell and his telling people to stop posting what they want again. I assumed when he'd told me to stop posting in this thread he was just pissed. Turns out he's just a dickhead. Glad he's on ignore.
